运脾滋肾汤对去卵巢大鼠骨质疏松模型的影响

目的:了解运脾滋肾汤对去卵巢大鼠骨丢失的影响及可能的作用机制,进而探讨PMOP发病机制以及为临床PMOP防治用药选择提供实验依据。方法:将成年雌性大鼠40只随机分为4组,①假手术(Sham)组②卵巢切除(OVX)组③卵巢切除+尼尔雌醇(OVX+E)组④卵巢切除+运脾滋肾汤(OVX+Y)组,分别对各组大鼠进行灌胃给药后处死全部大鼠,称取大鼠子宫湿重,测量子宫内膜厚度,测定血清钙、磷、碱性磷酸酶、性激素、骨钙素水平等代谢指标。结果:较OVX组相比,OVX+Y组大鼠BMD明显增加,血清钙、磷浓度亦血清中骨钙素浓度升高,碱性磷酸酶活性降低,差异均有显著性,而与OVX+E组相比则无明显差异,但大鼠子宫/体重指数较小,子宫内膜厚度较薄。结论:运脾滋肾汤可防治OVX所致骨丢失,其作用机制是通过对机体多方位、多环节的调节作用来实现的。

Acupuncture and moxibustion for incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction:A randomized controlled trial

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture and moxibustion for incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction.Methods:A total of 100 patients with incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,and there were 50 patients in each group.The control group was treated with routine western medicine treatment,while the observation group was treated with acupuncture and moxibustion therapy on the foundation of the routine western medicine treatment of the control group.Zhongwan(中脘CV12),Tianshu(天枢ST25),Zusanli(足三里ST36),Shangjiuxu(上巨虚ST37),Zhigou(支沟TE6),Dachangshu(大肠俞BL25),and Xiaochangshu(小肠俞BL27)were taken when acupuncture was performed.Moxibustion was performed with moxibustion box on abdomen after acupuncture.The time of abdominal pain relief,the first anal exhausting,the first defecation and intestines sound recovery,surgery conversion rate and clinical efficacy were observed in the two groups.Results:The time of abdominal pain relief,the first anal exhausting,the first defecation and intestines sound recovery in the observation group were all shorter than those of the control group.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups(all P<0.01).The surgery conversion rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(P<0.01).The clinical efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:Acupuncture and moxibustion therapy on the foundation of the routine western medicine treatment,which can reduce the surgical conversion rate and cut down the time of treatment,was superior to routine western medicine treatment on the clinical efficacy of incomplete adhesive intestinal obstruction.

Evaluation of the curative effect of acupuncture manipulation of regulating governor vessel and unblocking brain on the patients with post stroke depression associated with anxiety

Objective： To observe the comprehensive curative effect of acupuncture manipulation of regulating governor vessel and unblocking brain for post stroke depression associated with anxiety.Methods： Sixty-four patients with post stroke depression associated with anxiety were randomly divided into 2 groups according to the random numbers generated by spss16.0 software, the group of acupuncture manipulation of regulating governor vessel and unblocking brain（group A） and medication group（group B）, with 32 patients in each group. Acupuncture manipulation of regulating governor vessel and unblocking brain was performed in group A.Bǎihuì（百会GV 20）, Shéntíng（神庭GV 24）, Yǎmén（哑门GV 15） and Dànzhōng（膻中CV 17）, Gānshū（肝俞BL 18）. Xīnshū（心俞BL 15）. Shènshū（肾俞BL 23）,Tàichōng（太冲LR 3）, Tàixī（太溪KI 3）, Shénmén（神门HT 7） and Nèiguān（内关PC 6） were selected. The treatment was conducted for once a day, and 5 times a week. Escitalopram oxalate tablets were given orally to the patients in group B for once a day. The treatment was conducted for 8 consecutive weeks in each group. The scores of Hamilton depression scale（HAMD）, Hamilton anxiety scale（HAMA）, Barthel index（BI） and Fugl-Meyer assessment（FMA） in the two groups before and after treatment were compared.Results： Comparison with the same group before treatment, HAMD score and HAMA sore in the two groups after treatment for 4 weeks and 8 weeks were all obviously lower than that in the same group before treatment（all P〈0.01）; after treatment for 8 weeks, B1 score and FMA score in the two groups were all significantly higher than that in the same group before treatment（all P〈0.01）. Comparison between two groups after treatment. HAMD score and HAMA sore in group A after treatment for 4 weeks were significantly lower than that in group B（both P〈0.05）; only the HAMA sore in group A after treatment for 8 weeks was lower than that in group B（P〈0.05）, and there was no significant difference in HAMD score in the two groups（P〉0.05）; after treatment for 8 weeks, FMA score in group A was obviously higher than that in group B（P〈0.05）, and there was no significant difference in BI score in the two groups（P〉 0.05）.Conclusion： The curative effect of acupuncture manipulation of regulating governor vessel and unblocking brain on the anxiety state and motor function of the patients with post stroke depression is superior to that of escitalopram. With regard to the improvement of depression, this acupuncture manipulation was provided with the characteristic of rapid onset, and its long-term efficacy is equivalent to that of escitalopram. In terms of the improvement of activities of daily living, the curative effect of the two methods is equally well.

The anti-hypertensive effect of time acupuncture on the patients with primary hypertension

Objective:To observe the anti-hypertensive effect of time acupuncture on primary hypertension so as to provide the therapeutic regimen for the treatment of primary hypertension.Methods:A total of 120 patients with primary hypertension were randomized into a western medication group and an acupuncture-medication group,60 cases in each one.In the western medication group,levoamlodipine maleate tablets were prescribed for oral administration.In the acupuncture-medication group,on the base of the treatment as the western medication group,time acupuncture was combined in the period of a day from 7:00 a.m.to 9:00 a.m.The duration of treatment was 4 weeks in the two groups.Before and after treatment,blood pressure,serum endothelin(ET)and nitrious oxide(NO)were measured successively and the clinical therapeutic effect was evaluated.Results:(1)Blood pressure:the systolic and diastolic pressure after treatment were all lower than that before treatment in the two groups,indicating statistical differences(all P<0.05),After treatment,the systolic and diastolic pressure in the acupuncture-medication group were lower than that of the western medication group,indicating significant differences(both P<0.05).(2)ET and NO:after treatment,ET in the acupuncture-medication group was lower than the western medication group and NO was higher than the western medication group,indicating statistical differences(both P<0.05).(3)Clinical therapeutic effect:the total effective effect of anti-hypertension was 89%in the acupuncture-medication group,higher than 63%in the western medication group,indicating statistical difference(P<0.05).Conclusion:The combined treatment of western medication and time acupuncture(7:00 am to 9:00 am)achieves better effect on primary hypertension as compared with simple western medication and its anti-hypertensive effect is probably related to the decrease of ET and the increase of NO.

Rheumatoid arthritis treated with the triple strong-stimulation technique of acupuncture and moxibustion at specific acupoints:A randomized controlled trial

Objective: To explore the clinical therapeutic effects and the mechanism on rheumatic arthritis(RA)treated with the combination of the instruments and techniques of acupuncture and moxibusiton.Methods: A total of 60 RA patients were randomized into an observation group and a control group,30 cases in each one. In the control group, diclofenac sodium sustained release tablets were prescribed for oral administration, 0.3 g each time, twice a day, methotrexate tablets(MTX) for oral administration,10 mg each time, once a week and folic acid tablets for oral administration, 5 mg each time, once a week. In the observation group, besides the treatment with western medicines, simultaneously, the specific acupoints were selected and stimulated with the triple strong-stimulation therapy, in which, the strong bloodletting technique, the strong cupping technique and the strong moxibustion technique were combined together, with different instruments of acupuncture and moxibustion adopted. The treatment was given once every 3 days, consecutively for 10 times. In 30 days of treatment, the therapeutic effects were observed in the two groups. Separately, before and after treatment, the rheumatoid factors(RF),hypersensitive-C reactive protein(hs-CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), the scores of joint symptoms and physical signs as well as the disease activity score(DAS-28) were observed in the two groups.Results: Regarding RF, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 248.01 ± 79.81 vs 31.17 ± 29.01,the control group 254.11 ± 72.16 vs 66.42 ± 37.07, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding hs-CRP, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 26.12 ± 9.22 vs 8.98 ± 7.66, the control group 23.18 ± 7.18 vs 16.01 ± 5.02, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding ESR, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 30.56 ± 11.38 vs 12.58 ± 5.91,the control group 35.52 ± 9.67 vs 21.47 ± 6.91, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding DAS-28, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 8.89 ± 2.01 vs 3.01 ± 0.74, the control group 8.14 ± 1.38 vs 4.12 ± 0.96, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05). Regarding the quantitative grading score of symptom, there were statistical significant differences before and after treatment in the observation group and the control group(the observation group 7.87 士 1.69 vs 3.82 ±1.96, the control group 7.77 ± 1.68 vs 5.01 ± 11.23, both P < 0.05). The result in the observation group was lower significantly than the control group after treatment(P < 0.05).The total effective rate was 96.67%(29/30) in the observation group and was 80.0%(24/30) in the control group, indicating the statistical significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.01).Conclusion: Based on western medications, the triple strong-stimulation therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion at specific acupoints significantly relieves the joint symptoms, reduces the inflammatory reaction indicators and improves the clinical therapeutic effects on RA in the patients.
